    I would suggest once you get this off is to use a bit H2.0 bit with a screwdriver. The included hex key was over tightening the screws for me and led to one of mine almost stripping. Now that I use a screwdriver I haven't had any issues.

    Buildzoid has done a PCB breakdown of the ASRock Fatal1ty AB350, which is very similar to the X370 board.

    So I tried to overclocking my system today. I was able to dial in a 3.6GHz @ 1.2V on my Ryzen 1700. Here is a spreadsheet with benchmarks, temps and settings. (Ambient Temp is 24C and CPU temps were recorded with HWMonitor.)

    It could fit under the vertical stand, but not with the feet that comes with the case for horizontal. You would have to get custom feet to prop it up or just place it on top.

    I second this. If you want a good external this is the one I use: http://www.lg.com/us/burners-drives/lg-WP50NB40-external-blu-ray-dvd-drive

    Cleaned up my desk and rearranged it a bit to make it sort of photo worthy. (Top Left is my work laptop, Left is my personal laptop that I mostly use to rip my BluRay collection to my Plex Server.)

    Looking into my case it doesn't look like there is room for it. Even if there was you would be right against the GPU cooling plastic. You would be better off with 40mm fans on top if you wanted additional airflow in the GPU chamber.

    There was no difference with it on or off with the furry donut of death maxing out my GPU. Both runs during a 5 min span the FPS averaged between 91 and 92 FPS and ran at 88C. So I just left it out seeing as it isn't doing anything. As I was going into my build to remove the weather sealing...

    3/8" Wide and 7/16" Tall. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BQL29G/ I will probably just remove it. It was something I was testing, but when it comes to all the PSU cables and the PCIe riser I don't think much air from the CPU chamber is coming up to the GPU chamber. I will test this out...

    So, I finally got the rest of my parts in today and managed to finish up my Sentry. I have to say I'm pretty happy with the results. Below are photos of the build and the specs: Specs CPU: AMD Ryzen 1700 CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-L9i Thermal Compound: Arctic Silver 5 MOBO: ASRock Fatal1ty x370...

    Got mine last Thursday. (2nd batch of Sentry's, 1st batch of white Sentry's. Sentry #88, Order #422.) I have all my parts in it, however I'm still waiting on CableMod PSU cables and my Noctua AM4 bracket. I will create a write up and have some pictures once I get everything in. I'm also waiting...

    Welcome to the party. Last I heard was on May 29th "Sent from Poland 2017-05-29 09:03 WER Pruszcz Gd." and I too live on the east coast. Just be patient. There is nothing they can do.

    I was about to say... I sure hope so as I already ordered it and they make the fastest Ryzen RAM right now. If it doesn't you can always replace the heat spreader.
